Gobble On the Green

November 25, 2021 @ 8:00 am - 12:00 pm

The turkey, cornbread dressing, pumpkin pie, football and family time…so many reasons to love about Thanksgiving!  Did we mention pie?  Each family has its own activities and traditions to look forward to the holiday.  The Village Green presents a 5K turkey trot and 1 Mile Fun Run – the Gobble On the Green. This new Cashiers holiday tradition returns year after being virtual in 2020. The Thanksgiving Day 5K Run/Walk will begin at 9 a.m. with the Fun Run starting at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, November 25 at The Village Green Commons in beautiful Cashiers, NC. All proceeds benefit The Village Green, Cashiers 13 acre privately conserved park for public enjoyment.

Early bird registration for Gobble On the Green 5K is $25 including a race t-shirt through November 10.  Late registration, including race day, is $30 with a t-shirt while supplies last. Due to the uncertain status of COVID we are also offering a DIY virtual option through the race website.

A FREE One-mile Fun Run for children ages 5-10 years beginning at 9:30 a.m.  While the Fun Run is FREE – we would ask that the kids register online or on Race Day. T-shirts may be purchased separately.
